How to change timing belt on a 2005 KIA Sedona LX

I have a 2005 3.5L Kia Sedona LX with 84000 miles and the belt needs to be changed. I bought it at 51000 miles. There are no manuals out for this car. I can change it if I just have the proper instructions and pictures to guide me.

The oil filter is towards the front of the car, underneath on the passenger side, at the corner of the engine cradle. Loosen the drain plug and drain the oil. Make sure the old oil filter gasket came off with the oil filter. Reinstall the new oil filter. Reinstall the drain plug and fill with 5 quarts of 10w/30 motor oil.

The 3.8 liter in the 2006 actually has a timing chain not a belt. So the chain doesn't need to replace what you may run into down the road is the tensioners having a problem as their is basically 3 chains in that engine. I would still take chains over belts any day though.thank you and enjoy,Lee
